There isn’t really a lot I can do at the moment. Still too early to plant out the seedlings I’ve started, I’ve watered and weeded until this Saturday and I’m out of room to start too much more inside. I am planning on starting one more batch of okra because the seedlings I have are looking iffy. If they come back, then I’ll just have more to share at the plant swap next month. I did start a few more tomatoes last night using my new “greenhouse” method of planting in iced mocha cups. I’ll try to remember to post a picture of this next time.
I’m giving the lemon tree a little break from my ministrations. I’m sure it appreciates having a lot less scales each time I work on it, but using so much rubbing alcohol on such a young tree doesn’t seem right. I suppose I can just use water, but I was under the impression that the alcohol kills off a lot of the honeydew residue easier than just water.
Also, while admiring some sugar snap pea seedlings, I saw a green “stick” standing about 5 inches out of the soil. Almost looks like asparagus, but I thought my asparagus all disappeared the year before last. Besides, this is in a totally different bed than they were planted in. Did I transfer it when working the soil in both beds and trying to even them out? I’m tempted to let it do it’s thing for a bit to see what happens with it.
